-## Built-in File Systems
+## Local File System
-Flink ships with implementations for the following file systems:
+Flink has built-in support for the file system of the local machine, including
any NFS or SAN drives mounted into that local file system.
+It can be used by default without additional configuration. Local files are
referenced with the *file://* URI scheme.
- - **local**: This file system is used when the scheme is *"file://"*, and it
represents the file system of the local machine, including any NFS or SAN
drives mounted into that local file system.
+## Pluggable File Systems
- - **S3**: Flink directly provides file systems to talk to Amazon S3 with two
alternative implementations, `flink-s3-fs-presto` and `flink-s3-fs-hadoop`.
Both implementations are self-contained with no dependency footprint.
-
- - **MapR FS**: The MapR file system *"maprfs://"* is automatically available
when the MapR libraries are in the classpath.
+Apache Flink project supports the following file systems as plugins:
+
+ - [**Amazon S3**](./s3.html) object storage is supported by two alternative
implementations, `flink-s3-fs-presto` and `flink-s3-fs-hadoop`.
+ Both implementations are self-contained with no dependency footprint.
+
+ - **MapR FS**: The MapR file system *maprfs://* is automatically available
when the MapR libraries are in the classpath.
+ <span class="label label-info">Note</span> You'd need to build from sources
the `flink-mapr-fs` JAR file.
Review comment:
I've removed this notice sentence, but I need to restructure this
documentation or mention somehow that this MapR FS is not pluggable as others
in this list.
